Basic Home Fire Safety Training Materials
Tasmania Fire Service in partnership with Australian Fire Services and the Australasian Fire and Emergency Services Authorities Council (AFAC) have worked with the Vocational Educational and Training (VET) sector to have home fire safety included into national qualifications for community care and health industry workers.
To ensure currency and consistency of the information, Australian and New Zealand Council for fire and emergency services have developed the Basic Home Fire Safety Training Materials for Registered Training Organisations which deliver the relevant qualifications in every state and territory.
Introduction to Basic Home Fire Safety training materials
The Basic Home Fire Safety training materials support knowledge evidence assessment requirements for Units of Competency from the CHC Community Services Training Package and the HLT Health Training Package.
Australian fire services recommend their use by:
- Community care agencies as part of their induction of new workers and skills maintenance of existing workers
- Individual providers of care including paid workers and family carers.
